This week in class we have been learning about: In geography we have been looking into cold deserts and their features. In PE we have continued to develop a simple dance routine. In Science, we are currently conducting an investigation centred around ‘suitable’ materials. In maths we have looked at equal groups and introduced the multiplication symbol. In RE we continued to look at the parable of The Lost Sheep.

Our Flashback 4 questions have been:

1. What is a portrait?
2. Can you name me 3 features of a hot desert?
3. How many sides does a pentagon have?
4. Can you name some physical and human features?

Next week we will be learning about: In geography we will be comparing hot and cold deserts. In PE we will continue to create and perform a sequence with control. In Science, we will continue to conduct an investigation centred around ‘suitable’ materials. In maths we will introduce ‘division’ and begin to look at the 2 times table. In Art we will be focusing on our portraits, with the help from our workshop at Ferens Art Gallery.
